Dear colleagues from DH and from AI applications
research for journalism, education, law, media, market research, market
communication, intelligent interfaces, etc.,
in the context of AI 4 Science conference, 5-9
October 2026 in Mainz, there will be a AI4Humanities&SocialSciences track,
chaired by Julianne Nyhan (Technical University Darmstadt) and Christoph Bläsi
(Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz).
For this track, we invite contributions, also from
application fields, on topics like:
– (innovative) theoretical and analytical
applications of AI in HSS (Humanities and Social Sciences) and critiques
thereof, for example concerning AI and hermeneutics and tools for empirical and
analytical research (e.g. for content analysis)
– ethical dimensions of the use of AI in HSS, for
example, where AI may lead to the reinscription or activation of long standing
or new dynamics of bias or an inappropriate use of resources or applications
like deathbots
– source analysis and source criticism of AI in
HSS, for example, multimodal
– AI and vector-based search
– AI applications close to the methodological
frontier in application areas linked to HSS, e.g. journalism, education, law,
media, market research, market communication, intelligent interfaces, etc.
– (innovative) presentation and dissemination of
HSS research with the help of AI, for example storytelling
– (innovative) approaches to the inclusion of
stakeholders outside academia in Digital Humanities and Digital Social Sciences
research, for example citizen science
